Que la vie est chère!
Uhh, I'm not really sure if I'm in the mood for writing, but it has been awhile, so I'll give it a try... My week (since Saturday) has been extremely dull, yet has left me feeling rather accomplished. I tiled/grouted/sealed another floor, fixed my mistakes on the kitchen floor, finished painting most of the house, cleaned the downstairs of the house, gave my new kitty a bath, and did some errands for my mom.
Speaking of my mom, she and my sister have been away since Saturday, and perhaps this is why I’ve excelled in my productiveness. I’ve definitely found that as time goes on, I work better on my own. I really dislike group projects. I want to work on my own schedule and at my own pace, which is usually very fast. I don’t like wasting time on things like ladders when I could easily hang over the railing to reach a spot. I don’t want to wait 24hrs for the Thin Set to cure when I could carefully complete the entire process in one day. I don’t need to tape around windows when I could simply wipe away imperfections with a wet rag.
I spoke to my roommate last night (not the new one)… Wow. I really don’t want to go back to school. The thought of it makes me want to punch someone in the face. Maybe just a certain someone… I honestly have not discovered much quality in the kids I’ve met at school. I would take my friends from home over any of them, any day.
I really want to live a simple life. Yes, I want a car, a nice house, a good amount of money… but I want to labor at it in a simplistic way, if that makes any sense… I would rather do physical labor than sit behind a desk in some office building. I’ve mentioned this to a few kids at school, and they’ve all responded the same way: “Oh, so you want a mindless sort of job…” No. I don’t consider spending hours determining how to properly level a floor to be “mindless”. I want to think through projects, just as you would in many other occupations, but I want the satisfaction of seeing progress as I work. Some days I feel as though I’m becoming too domesticated, because on top of wanting to do household chores, I like cooking. I could seriously spend days just cooking. It doesn’t even have to be stuff that I like. Just anything that allows me to experiment with a recipe or combinations of ingredients. And eventually, I’ll need people to cook and clean for, so there’s the whole family aspect… Shit. Where is this leading me?? I’m destined to be a housewife, and I probably won’t even be desperate.
Ah, whatever. I think I’m making myself depressed by writing this, so it’s time to stop.
BUT I DON'T WANNA GO TO SCHOOL! I WANNA STAY HOME, AND BAKE COOKIES WITH YOU! -I think that's from Space Jam.
P.S. My mom said I can come home for Halloween if my academic schedule permits!!
